Member Function Documentation

Hashes which derive from IteratedHashWithStaticTransform provide static member functions InitState and Transform. External classes, like SEAL and MDC, can initialize state with a user provided key and operate the hash on the data with the user supplied state.

Transform operates the hash on data. When the call is invoked digest holds initial state. Upon return digest holds the hash or updated state.

Note

On Intel platforms the state array and data must be 16-byte aligned for SSE2.

The algorithm provider can be a name like "C++", "SSE", "NEON", "AESNI", "ARMv8" and "Power8". C++ is standard C++ code. Other labels, like SSE, usually indicate a specialized implementation using instructions from a higher instruction set architecture (ISA). Future labels may include external hardware like a hardware security module (HSM).
